Hi Woods
I also do jewellery design and manufacture also.
I find my laptop struggles as they are often only a dual core and the graphics cards are not the best.
My desktop system which is a quad core i7 on a SSD with a good graphics card is probably twice as fast.
A lot of filleted beads (like 1600 of them) will really slow you down as they take a lot of time for the graphics card to render.
A good script to use on a shortcut key is
script: /* Toggle mesh angle */ var newang, ang = moi.view.meshAngle; if ( ang == 5 ) newang = 10; else if ( ang == 10 ) newang = 25; else newang = 5; moi.view.meshAngle = newang; var sidepane = moi.ui.getUIPanel( 'moi://ui/SidePane.htm' ); var endsection = sidepane.document.getElementById('MiddleBody').nextSibling; if ( endsection.lastChild.id != 'angval' ) endsection.insertAdjacentHTML( 'beforeEnd', '' ); endsection.lastChild.innerText = newang;
This will toggle between a mesh angle of 5 10 and 25
It should help
Cheers shayne
